Today is a big day.
Firstly, because my grandmother flies for the first time. She is 76 years old, left Romania for the first time two years ago but never took a plane. When I arrived in September she asked shyly if I really thought she could fly. "Of course", I said. And before she knew it, I booked us both on a flight to Rome. My brother lives there with a cousin and her husband, so off we are for the adventure!
Secondly, today is a big day because I have never been to Italy. I always wanted to but never did it. Three days in Rome won't help me get to know Italy but it will probably create an urgency to go back again soon and spend more time getting to know it. Will let you know how that goes...tomorrow.
Ah, Italia, here we come!
